Problem: Scientists have calculated
that in five years’ time, all our resources will have run out. War
will eventually break out as nations will fight for what will be
left. Natural disasters like drought, famine and diseases will
make the situation worse. In short, we are living on a dying
planet. We have only a short time to solve this world problem, or
else we will face extinction.
The Facts: A planet has been discovered. It is Planet
Kappen. Perhaps people could live there. Kappen and Earth are very
similar. Here are some facts about Planet Kappen gathered by a
giant computerized telescope. Kappen has oceans. They are full of
protein-carrying marine life. We need to eat protein in order to
live. Kappen has natural resources like forests, fuel, minerals
and living things. Kappen has distinct seasons with cold climate
for approximately half of an Earth year. It is reported that
native inhabitants are living on Planet Kappen. They live very
differently than we do.
Your Job: You were commanded by the leader of the United
Nations to explore Planet Kappen as a last hope to save the Earth
and the human race.
